A latex mattress is supported by a rigid surface—a foundation or platform bed. Our matching natural foundation replaces the boxspring in a bedstead or frame. The foundation is a rigid wooden support made of untreated pine, with three-quarter-inch slats spaced 2.5" to 3" apart. It is enclosed in the Savvy Rest organic casing. Height: Standard (9") or Low-profile (5").
Foundation Tips
- To choose the right height, measure the "boxspring space" in a new bed, or measure the height of a boxspring you are replacing in an existing bed. Foundations are not returnable.
- A split (two-piece) Queen foundation is a good option for homes with small doors, narrow stairways, or tight corners. Be sure to measure these areas before choosing a model, and remember that a foundation does not flex.
